Frequently Asked Questions
How many bits does the SN74LS273N store, and what is its maximum clock frequency?
The SN74LS273N is an 8-bit D-type flip-flop capable of storing one byte of data per clock cycle. It supports a maximum operating frequency of 30MHz (30,000,000 Hz), making it suitable for data latching in medium-speed digital systems including microprocessor bus interfaces and I/O port expansion applications.
What package does the SN74LS273N use?
The SN74LS273N comes in a 20-pin PDIP (Plastic Dual In-line Package) package, identified by JESD-30 code R-PDIP-T20. This through-hole package is ideal for prototyping on breadboards and through-hole PCB designs. It is Pb-free (JESD-609 e4) and RoHS compliant for use in modern environmentally regulated applications.
What is the output sink current of the SN74LS273N?
The SN74LS273N has a maximum output low current (I(ol)) of 8mA per output pin. This drive capability is typical for LS-family TTL logic, sufficient for driving standard TTL inputs, indicator LEDs (with current-limiting resistors), and other logic-level loads within the operating specifications of the device.
What are typical applications for the SN74LS273N?
The SN74LS273N is commonly used as a data bus register, output port latch, or address latch in microprocessor-based systems. Its 8-bit width and asynchronous master reset are particularly useful in industrial controllers, embedded systems, and retro computing designs where a simple reliable octal D flip-flop with through-hole package is preferred.
